I feel like this month is a lost cause

I feel like i'm never going to O my OPK was almost positive yesterday which usually means today should have been positive and it wasn't. I"m so annoyed with TTC i'm ready to give up. I'm having some watery and ewcm but then i'm thinking its just DH's stuff. How long does it usually stay up there we BD last night should i still have some of his up there?

Im not too sure how long it stays up there. I had the same question, but what i did find out is that if you stretch semen, it stretches into little spider web like strings, and after a couple times it breaks. EWCM shouldnt break, and should be 1 strand. I hope that helps.
Also, whe I got my soo close to positive OPK I dtd, then the next one was lighter the next day and so on until it faded. Im thinking i caught the end of the surge since you have 24-48 hours to ovulate after it. So either way if you think you almost had your positive and then DTD youre still in the 2ww!!

That sounds like a good idea that way we can obsess with you. I was gonna say i looked at your chart and it doesnt look like (fomr your numbers) that you have o'd yet

I just didnt see a big temp jump...

Denise, I'm sorry! I gave up on opk because they never seemed to be right for me. I temped this month and o'd on cd15. Hopefully your temp will jump up in a day or so and you're o'ing now. BD tonight just in case. G/L

HippyMomOf4 · #6 April 8th, 2008, 03:47 PM

yeah we plan on BD from now untill CD19 just in case i O around that that time last cycle. Okay i added the pic of my OPK's. If for some reason i missed yesterday main surge then i wouldn't have a temp rise until tomorrow since i would have O'd today. But who knows!

Eleysia · #7 April 8th, 2008, 03:52 PM

I cant see the pic because im at work, but im about to leave now and will be home in about an hour. Ill look at it as soon as i get home sweety. I hope this is your month!!!

That 1st cd13 one looks dark. Maybe that detected your surge and you're o'ing today. So, we'll see if the temp rises in the morning! G/L

I hope so too, but DH will be out to sea(stupid navy) for the next two months and i won't be temping or anything like that so hopefully that will take the stress away for a few months! I'm going to miss you ladies too i will only be able to get on here when i'm at my friends house! My mom doesn't have internet

I say CD 13 was + for sure. That is about how dark me IC OPK's have ever gotten. And I am betting you get cross hairs for today.

Welcome to the 2WW!!!

Thanks Bobbie, i think is positive too but i guess cause it isn't as dark as last months i was thinking it wasn't. I sure hope my temp is up up up tomorrow but i'm not going to get my hopes up to much! It would be great if it was because i would be due Dec 30th which is my dads b-day!
